Thank you so much for the detailed and lovely comment! So glad it resonated/got you thinking. The dissonance was very intended, and maybe should be made more explicit in the description. I know I personally really struggle against a self-imposed pressure to be perfect (or never fail, etc.) and many years of therapy and these lil' game jams are ways for me to chip away at that impulse and remind myself that there is no such thing as perfect, only progress, self-understanding, and such.
Do REALLY love the idea of tying in the d6s rolled to the affirmation, and wish I'd thought of it! The idea was then to roll a d6 to determine which one to do, but may not have made that clear enough in the pursuit of sub-48 ha
